CAS Exam 7 Spring 2014, Question 3

Study guide: Exam 7

Given the following data for a Cape Cod reserve analysis:

Accident Year Actual Incremental Reported Losses ($000) at 12 Months 24 Months 36 Months
2010 100 255 180
2011 120 280
2012 120
Accident Year Expected Incremental Reported Losses ($000) at 12 Months 24 Months 36 Months
2010 80 300 200
2011 80 320
2012 100

The parameters of the loglogistic growth curve (\omega and \theta) and the expected loss ratio (ELR) were previously estimated, resulting in a total estimated reserve of $1,500,000. The parameter standard deviation of the total estimated reserve is $350,000.

Calculate the standard deviation of the reserve due to parameter and process variance combined.
